I do enjoy it and have put a bit of thought into setting things up so I can enjoy where I live.

Here’s the view right now

We saw some of the pink algae that indicates a possibility of bioluminescence too.

And then saw bioluminescence in Bon Accord Harbour (at 3am …). I splashed around with the net and tried to get pics & video but they don’t do it justice

And we were lucky to get a visit by the local taxman … a bronze whaler shark decided he wanted a late afternoon snack (I was cleaning fish).

Yesterday was a stunner of a day!

The water was sooo calm and it’s already pretty warm. Here’s what it was like in Bostaquet Bay (southern end of Kawau Island).

Summer is coming #kikorangi
